Far End Alarm Threshold | Determines the value that the alarm integration counter must reach for a far-end alarm to be declared. If the up count is 6, the down count is 1, and the threshold is 1500, an alarm is integrated in |
Statistical Alarm Severity | Used to set up the severity of any of the statistical alarms. When a statistical counter exceeds it specified threshold, the AUM sends the alarm with the appropriate severity. Can be minor or major. |

These dialogs show sonet line configuration information. (If you reached any of these dialogs by device selection, the total number of rows read is displayed at the bottom of the dialog.) To select another line for viewing, enter a line number in the LINE field at the top of the dialog. The dialog is refreshed and displays the new information.
There are four dialogs for configuring SONET lines.
These dialogs are described in the sections that follow.
Use the Physical Line Config (SONET) dialog to view and configure SONET physical line information. (See Figure 3-32.)
